Friends First are now accepting digital signatures!

We have listened to your feedback and we know you are always looking for new ways to make your sales process more efficient.

Digital signatures save time, are legally binding (under the Electronic Commerce Act 2000) and assure a high level of technical security.

Digital signatures are an enabler of the application process, reducing onerous paper based processes making it easier and faster to do business with us.

Those of you who wish to use electronic signatures will use a software package which you select, to enable pdfs to be digitally signed. The pdfs can then be uploaded via New Business Online before the proposal is submitted or emailed to us.

If you’re not ready to use digital signatures yet there is no change to our current process for you.

What you need to do….

Select a digital signature software package such as Docusign and use this to put tags (like a digital post-it) on the places where your customer needs to sign. You can then email this to your client. When the client opens the document it is highlighted where they need to sign.
